Practice the three “Rs” — Reduce, Reuse, Recycle AIHce is progressively implementing green meeting initiatives, annually expanding efforts to become more environmentally friendly. Here’s what you can do to help: • Recycle badges, handouts/programs, bottles and plastic. Bins are located throughout the convention center. • Limit purchasing bottled water. • Reuse linens, towels, toiletries in your hotel room. • Walk to the convention center. • Take the airport shuttle instead of a cab. It costs less, too! • Participate in a carbon offset program. For information on how AIHce is contributing to this effort, visit the website, www.aihce2010.org.

This year’s display features: The Endangered Children Decontamination Trailer The Endangered Children Decontamination Trailer is the first step for children found in a meth manufacturing environment. It is a decontamination facility designed for children and serves as the location of their first medical evaluation. These children are removed from their homes and must leave everything behind due to toxic contamination. North Metro’s goal is to have the trailer serve as a safe gateway where children are provided for, acknowledged and cleansed. The trailer responds to the request of any first responder agency for incidents involving children from as far south as Castle Rock and as far north as Longmont. 98 AIHce 2010 + FINAL PROGRAM | denver, colorado | may 22-27 | aihce2010.org » Expo Theater: Product Demos and Presentations, Hall F
